They get publicly shamed.

Why should she write it off? Having a colleague offer to put his penis in your mouth is not and should never be considered an acceptable cost-of-doing-business for working in the tech field (or any field other than porn). If she stays silent, he'll do it again, and probably to other women also since he'll figure he…
Of course you can. You can affect social change. You can expose every single one of these incidents, expose every single one of the perpetrators, and build up critical mass of outrage until these misogynistic filth-mongers finally get it through their skulls that they cannot behave like this. You can shame them. …
You can't possibly know that, since you have no way of actually experiencing what it is like to be a woman in this (or any) industry and have to deal with this shit on a daily basis. Walk a mile, etc. etc.
She's reporting on what women experience in the industry. Its her job to point out that in aggregate there are a LOT of women having similar experiences. If she identifies that there is a large number of women with this shared experience, then there is a problem with the industry as a whole.
I'm not. The incredible number of women defending themselves against perverts and speaking up about their own harassment is what makes it seem like a problem with the industry as a whole.
No. I am going to speak out against creepy perverts wherever I encounter them. Their inability to control their behavior is not my problem, and its not my job to be quiet and accept it and let them continue to be creepy perverts around me.
Being drunk doesn't give you a new personality, it amplifies the one you already have by depressing the part of your brain that tells you not to do stupid shit in public.
There is actually a book on business management called "The No-Asshole Rule" that suggests exactly as you do, that assholes in fact are the most toxic component of the corporate world and are themselves simply by being assholes the primary obstacle in corporate success (since their employees and everyone around them…
That would be a good start. This is an important lesson: HR is there to protect the company, not to protect the employee. They are not your friend. If you are being harassed at work, they will look at the situation from the corporate perspective and figure out the most expedient way to put a lid on it. If the most…
Why is it women's responsibility to "get over it" and not men's responsibility to stop being so creepy and disgusting?
Report to HR if need be,
"Ladies need to be more willing to lose their job" is really what you're saying there, since that is a real and common consequence for speaking out against sexual harassment.
Vivian Smith-Smythe-Smith and Oliver St. John Mollusc agree!
would it be harassment if he was brad pitt?
So rather than work to fix something she loves and wants to be a part of, she should be abused out of it thus allowing that behavior to continue unchecked, and scaring off other women who might want to become a part of it themselves?
It's already been on Jezebel. Should it not also be here?
Oh my goodness. Yeah, he's like a modern-day version of Crixus the Undefeated Gaul.
No, the general thrust of the tune is exactly the opposite: being from a rough and tumble background with little to no chance of attaining the luxe that they see in pop culture, so they make their own fun with what they have.
Oh no, what happened with the actor?
